    Question Ibis White or Glacier White??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ok so im in the market for a new 2013 Audi and leaning towards the S5. I am caught between 2 colors and thats the Ibis White and Glacier white. I think ive seen the Ibis but not the glacier yet. What would you guys recommend is the better of the two??

    Im going to add 5% tints all around and black out the taillights in the near future along with other things like a black valence and maybe side skirts

    That being said... which white would look the sportiest with this???

    Glacier White has the sparkle. That was my original color of choice until I went exclusive.

    5% tint in NY? That's gonna attract a lot of LEO attention.

    btw, there are plenty of pics comparing both. Search is your friend.

    Seriously? VTM I know you're new here so we'll cut you some slack, but please search before you start a new thread. This is the 2nd thread you've started based on the color of the car you want, why couldn't you just ask the question in the first thread?

    Although i dont care how many threads youve started... When i was considering the 2 whites, i noticed the Glacier showing the body lines a bit more/better. The
    off white/blue grey look kinda threw me off a bit though. MB has had a few "tweener" colors like this, but theirshad much more secondary pigment to it. Its not a real bright white to me like Ibis. I owned a ibis 11...for 3 days.

    I ended up going Monsoon Grey in a 13 due to a few friends in my town with Ibis already...Then 2 others go and buy monsoon. Chuckle. Good luck with the choice.
